Description: | Pleconaril is a capsid inhibitor used previously to treat enterovirus infections. Pleconaril is effective in inhibiting replication with an IC50 of 50 nM.Pleconaril is a capsid inhibitor designed to dock within a hydrophobic pocket formed by the capsid proteins VP1, VP3 and VP2. Pleconaril leads to stiffening of the capsid structure,preventing RNA release into the cell. Pleconaril has been used as treatment on a compassionateuse basis in neonates and immunodeficient patients with severe EV infections. |
Target: | enterovirus |
